What is Turf Care?

Turf care encompasses the essential elements of maintaining a healthy and beautiful lawn. It goes beyond basic mowing and watering, involving a scientific and proactive approach to address the core needs of your grass. Key aspects of turf care include:

  • Fertilization: Provides your lawn with the right nutrients at the right times of year for optimal growth.
  • Weed Control: Targeted weed control eliminates invasive plants that compete with your grass for resources.
  • Aeration: Perforates the soil to improve airflow, water penetration, and nutrient uptake.
  • Seeding: Overseeding fills in bare patches and introduces grass varieties suited to your conditions.
  • Insect & Disease Management: Protects your lawn from damaging insects and diseases.
